guard

guard

A guard is a method that determines if a transition can proceed. Returning true allows the transition to occur, returning false prevents it from doing so and leaves the state in its current place.

import { createMachine, guard, state, transition } from 'robot3';

// Only allow submission if a login and password is entered.
function canSubmit(ctx) {
  return ctx.login && ctx.password;
}

const machine = createMachine({
  idle: state(
    transition('submit', 'complete',
      guard(canSubmit)
    )
  ),
  complete: state()
});
